Definitions

  • the finding regards a support tube for winding yarn on a quill.
  • the yarn thus produced therefore needs to be wound onto a suitable support for forming the quill.
  • Consisting of a tubular body defined with the generic term "tube” and realised in cardboard or in another material suitable for the purpose, which is equipped on its side surface with an indentation for attaching or intercepting the end of the yarn to be wound on the support itself and where both the interception of the yarn and it subsequent winding on the tubular body take place with per se known automatic devices substantially resembling winding reels rotating on their own longitudinal axis, on which the tube to be wound is threaded.
  • Such a yarn-capturing indentation can take on different configurations, according to the characteristics of the yarn to be wound, all of which however can be sorted into three types:
  • the yarn-gathering indentation associated or not with a yarn-blocking indentation, is formed on the side surface of the tubular body and more precisely on one of the two edges, or close to one of them, which defines one of the two ends of the side surface of the body itself.
  • the tube as well as, obviously, being able to be mounted on winding machines on a single side, is suitable for being mounted only on a winding reel which has a specific direction of rotation, that corresponding to the inclination of the yarn-capturing indentation formed on the tube itself for which reason if winding machines are used with winding reels which rotate with opposite directions of rotation it is necessary to have stored two different types of "tubes", to the great disadvantage of the productivity.
  • GB-A-2056948 a support tube for yarns which has a plurality of indentations for attaching and gripping the end of a yarn to be wound on the support.
  • this plurality of indentations is provided only for permitting an easy and effective catching and holding of one single moving yarn on the same support.
  • the purpose of the present finding is that of foreseeing a tube for winding yarn which can be mounted on winding reels, independently from their direction of rotation.
  • a further purpose of the finding is that of foreseeing a tube for winding yarn which can be threaded on a winding reel on both its sides.
  • a further, but no less important purpose of the finding is that of foreseeing a tube for winding yarn which allows at least two packages or hanks to be realised on a single support consisting of the tube itself.
  • a further purpose of the finding is that of foreseeing a tube for winding yarn which ensures a greater productivity (increase in the amount of yarn wound per hour worked) with respect to suchlike known products.
  • Such purposes are obtained through the realisation of a tube equipped with at least two indentations, formed on its side surface; specifically provided for allowing the attachment of at least two yarns and the winding and formation of at least two hanks on the same support.
  • the indentations have a profile which is preferably symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis of the tube, so as to allow the attaching of the yarn independently of the direction of rotation of the tube itself.
  • the tube for winding yarn on a quill consists of a tubular, cylindrical or frustum of cone body 1, upon the side surface 2 of which indentations 3 are formed in which the end of the wound yarn attaches.
  • the indentation 3.1 of the yarn-catching type, consists of a circumferential cut in which an angular portion 3.11 has a greater width and depth with respect to the remaining angular portion 3.12.
  • the indentation 3.2 of the simple notch type, consists of a through-opening equipped with an oblique portion 3.21, to realise the attachment of the yarn and with a slit 3.22 for stopping the yarn itself.
  • the indentation 3.3 of the window notch type, consists of a through-opening 3.31, for attaching the yarn, possibly associated with a circumferential cut 3.32, for locking the yarn itself.
  • the tube according to the finding is represented in which the single tubular body 1 is equipped with two indentations, a first simple notch indentation 3.2 formed on the outer edge 4, and a second window notch indentation 3.3 arranged in an intermediate position on the side surface 2, respectively, so as to allow the winding of the two hanks 5 on the same body.
  • the tube according to the finding is represented which has two indentations 6.1 and 6.2 formed on the edges, being arranged opposite one another and with symmetrical profiles, so as to allow the winding of the quill 7 on both sides of the tube itself.
  • indentations are formed: two indentations 8.1 and 8.2 on the edges and one intermediate indentation 9 on the side surface which have a symmetrical profile with respect to a diametric plane passing through the axis "Z" of the tube, the intermediate indentation also having a symmetrical profile with respect to the plane " ⁇ ", passing through the midpoint line "K” of said indentation and perpendicular to the axis "Z" of the tube itself.
